How much should I budget for bespoke security grilles in Harrow?
Budget £474 to £3,594 including VAT (£395 to £2,995 plus VAT) per opening for bespoke security grilles in Harrow, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.
A bespoke security grille is designed and fabricated for one particular opening, such as an arched window, a curved bay, a very large screen or a period building where a standard grille would look wrong. It is measured on site, drawn up and made to suit.
Choices you can make
- Hidden or discreet fixings
- Design drawing agreed before fabrication
- Arched, curved, raked and odd-shaped grilles
- Retractable, fixed, removable or hinged in bespoke shapes
- Any RAL colour, galvanised or both
- Very large or multi-section screens

We agree a drawing showing bar layout, sections and finish before anything is made.

External grilles and planning
External grilles and shutters on shops and other commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the local council because they change the building's appearance. Many councils' shopfront guides favour internal, open-lattice grilles, particularly in conservation areas.
Bedroom and escape windows
Approved Document B (fire safety) expects many habitable rooms in houses, especially first-floor rooms, to have an emergency escape window with an unobstructed opening of at least 0.33 m², at least 450 mm high and 450 mm wide, with the bottom of the opening no more than 1,100 mm above the floor. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a release that opens from inside without a key.

Bespoke security grilles in Harrow: questions
Do you cover Wembley as well as Harrow?
Yes. As well as Harrow, we can arrange surveys in nearby Wembley, Northolt and Greenford, and elsewhere in Greater London.
Can you copy an existing grille design?
We can make a grille in a similar style for a matching window. We do not copy other firms' registered designs.
Can a grille be designed for a listed building?
Yes. Slim sections, matched colours and minimal fixings help, but listed building consent is still needed for works that affect the building's character.
Can you make a grille for an arched window?
Yes. Fixed and removable grilles can follow the arch exactly, and retractable grilles can be fitted below the springing line with a fixed arched panel above.
